Features

  • Integrates an AVR MCU Core with 1-Kbyte SRAM and 24-Kbyte RF Library in Firmware (ROM)
  • Achieves Low Current Consumption
    • 9.8 mA for RXMode (Low-Band), 1.2 mA for 21 ms cycle three-channel polling
    • 9.4 mA/13.8 mA for TXMode (Low-Band, POUT = 6 dBm/10 dBm)
  • Typical OFFMode Current of 5 nA (Maximum 600 nA at Vs = 3.6V and T = 85°C)
  • Provides a Digital Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) with Very High Relative Accuracy of ±1 dB, Enabled by Digitized IF Processing
  • 1024-byte EEPROM Data Memory for Transceiver Configuration
  • Utilizes a Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) Interface for RX/TX Data Access and Transceiver Configuration
  • Supports a 500-Kbit SPI Data Rate for Short Periods on the SPI Bus and Host Controller
  • Supports Mixed ASK/FSK Telegrams
  • Integrated Temperature Sensor
  • Operates with Supply Voltage Ranges from 1.9–3.6V and 2.4–5.5V
  • The ATA8510 Curiosity Board is certified for Operation in the 418–477 MHz Frequency Band
  • The ATA8510 Curiosity Board Supports Multiple Modes of Operation
    • Standalone mode (with its built-in AVR microcontroller)
    • Host-controlled mode (using an external MCU for enhanced application functionality)
